Unsponsored visit visa for residents of GCC countries in approved professions, allowing entry for tourism or business purposes.
The GCC Resident Visit Visa was introduced by the Royal Oman Police to foster regional integration and facilitate travel for expatriates residing in Gulf Cooperation Council countries. This visa fills a specific gap by providing a simplified, accessible entry route for skilled professionals living in neighboring GCC states, recognizing their established residency status and professional standing within the region.
This visa is designed for expatriate residents of Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE who hold a valid residency permit for at least three months. It is intended for approved professions, excluding certain categories like domestic workers or students. It is highly distinctive because it allows eligible residents to obtain a visa on arrival or via an expedited online process, bypassing the more rigorous requirements faced by other international applicants.
